Oh my - the 1995 Benetton/Ligier lives!!!
 
Well shoot! Anybody that puts that much duct-tape on a Formula 1 car ... what do you expect to come of the company? They're broke! (:

that'd look better with a wider body/track
 
I wonder when these shots were taken - this appears to be a pretty small aerodynamic model.

Judging by the sidepod exhausts they were expecting to use the Ferrari motor.
 
If Prost had survived they would indeed have used the 2000 Ferrari again.
 
Interesting news from grandprix.com that Prost in fact completed a chassis and it passed the FIA impact testing - and also that it wasn't running the Sauber 2001 aerodynamic front end (unlike every other midfield GP car this year :rolleyes: ).
 
Well, considering the budget they didn't have I'm not surprised the AP05 was hardly fancy.
 
He should stop the horror, and pack up go home and build a scale model car.
